Often, I find that in my work as a web site designer, I often am asked to
support persons who don't speak English. I have a small trick for handling
this, which perhaps you will find useful.
Many people will tell you to check the HTTP headers and redirect the user
to the proper site. Some will tell you to put all your text in a database
and build the translated documents automatically. Some will even go so far
as to sugest rididulous ideas such as having Babelfish translate your site
in real time (!). But there's an easier way, the way of the Master.
Want to support those foreigners? Just put a link to
http://www.learnenglishfast.com/ on your site. Let those foreign weirdos
figure your site for themselves when they're not busy invading each other.
Thank you.
